I wonder if I missed getting necessary accessories, like clamps and a ripping shoe, when I ordered my saw. I’ll chalk that up to not knowing much about the saw when I bought it.
I see that the Felder store is out of tee-nuts for the slider groove. They want $35, but it is not clear whether that is one nut or a handful. Any other sources for this sort of thing?
What are the dimensions of the tee-nuts? There is a wide variety of tee-nuts available through Grainger and Other industrial supply places, or I could have someone make a few for me, but I would have to know what dimensions to look for.
Thanks for any guidance!

The price on the Felder store is for one nut. I've spent a good amount of time trying to find and off-the-shelf nut from McMaster and Grainger, and ordered a couple I thought might work. I've been unsuccessful so far. Most tee (off-the-shelf) nuts are designed for use in cast iron (it seems).

Clamps are extra cost accessories. ?Buy the pneumatic clamps from Mac Campshure. ?
The ripping shoe should come with your machine. ?All three saws I’ve purchased from Felder came with that attachment. ?Now, it is possible they’ve discontinued the practice to save costs. ?Someone who has recently received a machine should comment. ? If you have a pair of pneumatic clamps, the ripping shoe will stay on the shelf collecting dust.
You won’t find a commercially available T-nut that fits the Felder sliding table slot. ?Mac Campshure provides them with his clamps, and I provide them with my short fence upgrade kits. ?You can get the dimensions off this drawing: ?
What are you planning to use the T-nuts for?

I use 1/2” x 1 1/4” flat bar stock and then drill and tap whatever thread you want in the middle.

I agree with Brian.? You can use UHMW polyethylene and insert a flanged nut into it (won't cut into or deform your aluminum), or in a pinch you can just use a bit of plywood and a T nut to match your threaded hand knob (or if you want fancy, you can get some adjustable kip lever handles -fancy heavy duty cast German ones or cheapo Chinese ones).? Profile a long strip of t-nut material and cut off short segments as you need for your next jig.? FYI you can thread hardwood and it lasts a surprisingly long time.
These are all cookie cutter parts and widely available, even from hobby shops.? I wouldn't use a cast iron/steel tee-nuts (meant for cast iron machine tools) on an aluminum extrusion.? You will destroy the anodized finish. Cheers from Waterloo

Thanks, guys! As an ultimate newbie I appreciate the help!
Maybe my saw has a ripping shoe included. It is somewhere in PA right now, according to the trucking company, so I don’t actually know what comes with it.
I’d use the tee nuts for making hold-down clamps, similar to those on Ramon Valdez’s videos. I’n not quite ready to splurge for Mac’s clamps.

No commercially available t-nuts are going to fit. So make your own or buy Felder, which most likely won’t be a t-nut, it will be a flat bar with a threaded hole.

Yes, you can use a flat bar. You will need multiple tapped holes if you want to fix it in place.

John,
I took David Best’s drawing to a local plastics shop who made me bar stock from left over cut off material. Is was inexpensive, 2 24” bars were about 20 bucks. I cut to length drill and tap as needed to make “T-Nuts” for the slot. This works very well, if you want a photo let em know I don’t a photo handy.
